I will review this article.  Taylor Trescott  - my talk + my edits 16:12, 22 December 2013 (UTC)


 * The character arc section; shouldn't it be in present tense per WP:FICTION?
 * "Millennium's creator Chris Carter conceived of Frank Black's character" don't think we need the "of"
 * "Henriksen used the break from production this afforded him to take a trip to Hawaii" we can drop the "this afforded him"
 * "Henriksen's first loss was to David Duchovny's role as Fox Mulder in The X-Files,[18] followed by a loss to Anthony Edwards as ER's Mark Greene,[18] and finally coming in behind Dylan McDermott's portrayal of Bobby Donnell in The Practice.[18]" I don't think we need three citations in this sentence (especially since they are all the same). Just use one at the end
 * References 17 and 18 are dead
 * Harv error on ref 16. I think it's because you're using |author=Shapiro, Marc instead of |first1=Marc |last1=Shapiro (consider adding the harverror script to your commons.js to spot these)
 * In the references section, you use both "Firstname Lastname" and "Lastname, Firstname" - be consistent
 * Add an external link to IMDB - *

 * Thanks for taking a look at this for me. I've addressed everything bar the first point, still looking at that one now. If I'm reading correctly, the historical present means I should be phrasing this as "However, Black retires when he finds that his family—wife Catherine (Megan Gallagher) and daughter Jordan (Brittany Tiplady)—are being threatened by an unknown stalker, who is mailing polaroid photographs of the family to Black"; and so on? If so I assume the first sentence, set before any of the events of the show, is still in the past tense? GRAPPLE   X  23:28, 24 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, events that occurred before the show should be in the past tense, but plot recaps should be present.  Taylor Trescott  - my talk + my edits 20:14, 28 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Cheers for clearing that up, I'll get on it now. GRAPPLE   X  21:58, 28 December 2013 (UTC)


 * Think I've made all the necessary tense changes, let me know if I've missed any though. I also ran a duplicate link script to double check and removed a few extraneous links that I had missed previously. Thanks again for your time on this one. GRAPPLE   X  22:49, 28 December 2013 (UTC)
